Hello all,

Hope everyone is doing fine. I have a Canadian Work Permit which I obtained after graduating from a Canadian University from being an International Student.

My work requires me to travel a lot. Sometimes I have to be in a specific country (out of Canada and not US) for 3-4 months due to project integration and so on. I will soon be extending my work permit and hoping to apply for a PR (Express Entry/Canadian Experience Class or whichever one is most eligible for me). My concern is will I get into trouble when I apply for PR for travelling a lot because I am on Canadian Work Permit.

I have a Work Permit which is valid for 2 years but expiring Feb 2016. I will be renewing my Work Permit in a couple weeks. I will get a new Temporary Resident Visa soon as well. I will also have any other countries' visa that is required for my travel.

What I would like to know is that if I can travel for work purposes to other countries and work there for a couple of months. This might happen a couple of times. I am employed by a Canadian Company. The employee will provide me a letter for the reason of my travels. I will also have a valid work permit and a valid temporary resident visa before I travel. I will also be paying my taxes to the Canadian government.

Please advice. Thank you.
